That will be answered monday night.

Do qbs play safety ??

No but they can put their defense in bad situations....... case in point this past sundays game against the dolphins. Brees turned the ball over 3 teams that gave the dolphins great field position, which lead to most of the dolphins points.

You dont think atleast PART of the success in take aways is not attributed to inexperience to the opposing team??

When you play rookies and guys with not alot of experience they agoing ot make throws that a vetern qb would not make........... Take the Jet game, two of those picks the saints had, were BAD decisions by Sanchez. They were throws a more experienced guy would not make... And yes I know veterans throw ints too, however you look at a guy 6 years in the league vs 2 years in the league and typically the guy 6 years in is going ot have far fewer turn overs.

The saints secondary has made some GREAT plays on the ball.......... but to totally deny the fact inexperience by the guy throwing it shows pure homerness/ignorance.

This. And they will continue to make great plays on the ball, including monday night B)

If the falcons turn the ball over like they have over the last couple of games due to turner not holding on and a couple of "wtf are you thinking" throws by ryan.. I agree

but If we can play turn over free we have a much better chance then you saint fans want to give us.

Oh give it a break dude. Monday night can't come fast enough. Make sure you are the first one to post after the game so I can see what you excuse will be then. Oh and don't forget, the Falcons has to play those same teams too so get your excuses ready.

Do you not find it odd that none of those QBs looked bad until they played the Saints? Curious at all?

dude I already debunked that one

Trent Edwards had a freaking PR of 8. Sanchez threw 5 picks in one game

You are going ot give the saints credit for Edwards sucking against Cleavland?

Really?

The falcons already dominated one of the teams the saints got lucky by so yea

And we did it when they had a better qb. a guy who actually has won in the nfl.

we held the dolphins to 7 points.

How did you do again?

also I find it interesting that NONE of you saints fans have debunked anything I have stated about the competition...... funy how that works huh?

all I see is that im whining or making excuses yet NONE OF YOU SOBS have tried to debunk the fact that of the 6 starts you have played 4 had a combined EIGHT STARTS ......nor have you even attempted to debunk that fact that the Saints defense has feasted on mistakes that probably would not be made by a player with more experience........... I have given the saints credit where credit was due for that... they have made those mistakes turn into points which is something not a lot of teams can say....... how ever it does not negate the point that someone more experienced would not make at least some of the decisions those players have made. ie throwing the ball into double coverage..... holding the ball too long and taking a sack etc etc

None of you have ever even attempted to debunk the actual fact based argument........ you want to know why??

because you cant skew it like you can any sort of stat argument.

Just because Pennington has experience doesnt make him that good

You played them the first game of the year. HENNE is just as good as pennington after 3 starts. Miami is a whole different team than when you played tard.

Atlanta played 2 teams that can go to the playoffs and THEY LOST BOTH!

GET OVER IT. ATLANTA ISNT as good as everyone thought they would be. Your running back sucks, You cant throw the ball good downfield. Your DB's suck. STOP CRYING

We also played a better ohins than the one you played in week 1. A phins team coming off 2 wins after losing their first 2. They came out smokin but couldn't hold off a good team.

You didn't handle their run formations well at all, there was confusion and to many 3rd down conversions. I'm not hatin' I'm just sayin'? Coming back like from a 21 point deficit is very impressive and I called it. I was telling a friend I was watching it with, that when you got the turnover right before half I said the saints would win...we bet I won, but I didn't take the money!

They averaged less than 2.4 yards a carry aside from one run where Vilma was being held by the neck and arm. Including that run, they still averaged half a yard less per carry than the Saints did. This was the league's best rush offense going into the game. And just like everyone else the Saints have played this year, they weren't the best when leaving the game.

As for the third down conversions... well the first one was an incomplete pass ruled complete but the "review malfunctioned". They had three third down conversions by running the ball... two third and ones, one third and two. The rest were by passing the ball.

I should also mention that the Saints had over 33 minutes of time of possession... the first team to lead ToP against the Dolphins. Everyone seemed to say that the Saints might only get 20 minutes of ToP heading into the game for some dumb reason. Saints had two defensive touchdowns, so ToP might have been even more in the Saints' favor if not for that.

We were talking about wildcat. They had like 24 yards out of the wildcat.

How is that going to help you on monday night? That comparison is ridiculous as are most of the posts you make. Good luck battling for the wildcard

We held the wildcat to something like 30 yards on 16 plays. If that isn't holding it in check I don't know what is.

As for not taking the money, are you stupid?

Their defense may have peaked too early.. their offense, I don't believe it has. Brees is coming off a 5000+ yard season and the Saints as a whole had the #1 offense last year, so they can go heavy on the offense all year. Assuming their defense, even if it drops off production, won't be nearly as bad as it was last year when most of their players were injured, the Saints will probably still prove to be a very strong team.

I think the Saints will beat the Falcons in a convincing fashion. I hope anyway. I may dislike the Saints, but I freakin hate the Falcons.

I don't think our defense has peaked. We still have a ways to go.

I wouldn't say a ways...Let's put things in perspective, this is the 1st season under a new DC with some new players, what more could you ask for?

They're playing this well and they haven't necessarily gelled yet. I see room for improvement - more sacks for example.

It's funny because I can use that SAME post on about 98% of the garbage you guys are spewing out.

The statement was made that we were going to play the same teams, I countered w/ a correct statement that we already have..........and done better.

Really??

so a guy who has lead two teams to the playoffs has been a top 10 passer most of his career..........

and a 2nd year player making his 3rd start is better?

wow/

So YOUR saying that after Ryan had started a couple games, He wasnt better than Pennington?

Henne gives them alot more at the position than Pennington did. The guy came in against a DIVISION RIVAL and drove down the field with less than 2 minutes and won the game. Chad doesnt win that game!!!!!!

YES i am saying that Henne is better than Pennington.
